THE CENTRE FOR ARTS AND TECHNOLOGY in partnership with the ViewFinders: International Film Festival for Youth presents READY SET SHOW, a 48 hour digital film competition where teams of up to 5 people have just 48 hours to plan, write, direct, shoot and edit a cinematic masterpiece (or just a cool short film you're really jazzed about).

April 16-18, 2010                                                      

  • 48 Hour Film Competition                                           
  • Kick off at Centre for Arts and Technology, Halifax

How it works:

  • Film submissions must be between 1-5 minutes in length including credits.
